"When I was asked to do this amazing machine I knew immediately that I would enjoy it. This sexy Lotus Elise was painted in the same tradition as my Brilliance paintings however since this isn't a portrait, I elected to have them placed in the Traditional Gallery. One of the most amazing things about these paintings is the silver oil paint I used which catches light from various angles and reflects back a shimmer in the lowest of lighting. These paintings look very different from various angle which make them ideal for large room viewing. The illusion of dimension is so real that lighting it from different angles produces 3D effect by shading on side and making the other brighter. This was a real treat to paint." Mario
